How Do You Spell APPRAISEMENTS?

Pronunciation: [ɐpɹˈe͡ɪzmənts] (IPA)

The spelling of the word "appraisements" can be a bit tricky. To start, "appraise" is pronounced /əˈpreɪz/. The suffix "-ment," pronounced /mənt/, is added to create a noun form. However, because the root word already ends in an "-e," an additional "-e" is added before the "-ment" suffix to maintain the "a" sound in the first syllable. Thus, "appraisements" is spelled with two "e's" between the "a" and "m" in the middle of the word.
